Hello,

I am travelling Belgium-Italy by bike and am waiting for a train in Grenoble tonight. I already stayed the night here and explored a little and I love it so far! People are all hot and riding nice bikes on good infrastructure :) (not perfect by far, best in France so far for sure)

Any recommendations for things to do/see/walk/eat? Thank you

I am considering crossing the Alps from France to Italy this week, however, it seems like a lot of passes (like Col D’Echelle) are still closed. Is there a route that is guaranteed to be open this time of year?

Hi! I am touring France with my gravelbike and having an absolute blast. I need to be back in Belgium may 3rd and am planning to go by train or perhaps Flixbus. I’m a bit overwhelmed by the options (or better lack of options) and am looking for some advice. Locals have already kindly informed me of the policy of different train lines in France and where to buy tickets and reserve spots for a bike.

I would prefer to avoid Paris, and instead travel through Luxembourg, where I can take a Belgian train with easy bike acces straight to my hometown. I am still unsure what my final destination will be, could be either Lyon, Marseille or maybe even Italy (Torino or Milan). I want to base my destination on the most comfortable public transport options.

Besides trains, Flixbus or even flying would also be an option if I manage to find a box for my bike. What would you do in my situation?
